Re: Speaker cable quality - magic or voodoo?



Voices all around me in a well-integrated surround system, Mr Lowe :-)

OK, except in the shower, where the voices are ABOVE my head... and for
which I use 79-strand cable, which is where we started this thread....

... and before anyone makes the joke, I'm used to conversations going over
my head, it's nice for music to as well :-) :-)
